Have been doing stuff in my garden, either naked, swim string or tiny asian bikini recently - for various reasons I never got around to having a conversation with our neighbours. They moved in 2-3 years ago. We are semi private but they can see in a bit if they want to and also when walking past the side of our garden etc. Recently the guy next door has appeared to want to say something to me or is having a smile/chuckle to himself when I go past. I have never seen him nor her without a top on, even on the hottest days when he might be in long shorts. I will get into conversation with him sometime soon. I hope it is that he and his partner have seen me 'underdressed' and I don't mind if he finds it amusing. Hopefully I can make it a non-issue with them - then I can explain to my OH who gets concerned about this stuff, despite wanting to be able to sunbathe 'very underdressed' herself.

My new neighbors have seen me in g-string even before they bought the house directly across the street from me. One brother comes over all the time to visit while I am in a thong or g-string. He came over to use my phone since he broke his at 7 a.m.the other morning. Since I sleep naked and half asleep I answered the door naked. He came inside and used my phone while I made coffee. After 30 minutes I put on a g-string to go out on the front porch with him. He returned later that night at 11:45 asking to connect to my wifi and sit on my front porch to chat with his gf. My roommate heard him and thought it was me. Roomie got me up, I went to the door naked to talk. Since it was late, I went out on the front porch with him naked to help him and stayed out there with him for 30 minutes. Well, last night I went out on my porch in a thong I had worn all day at the lake and to mow my grass. I even pumped gas on the way home at a station near the lake wearing just the thong. Jose was sitting on the porch trying to connect to my wifi. It was 9:30. I sat out there and talked with him and connected his phone to wifi. After 30 minutes, I removed my thong and continued to talk with Jose until 12:30 in the morning completely nude the rest of the time. He just smiled and didn't care. I love my new neighbors. Jose btw is around 45 if you were curious.

My male neighbor got a surprise this afternoon! I usually lay in my backyard which is semi-private and the neighbors, a nice male/female couple, have seen me a few times but never comment. Well today I was out on the back driveway, which is more secluded. It's right up against the neighbor's detached garage and as long as they're in their house or yard they can't see. Well today he decided to come around the back of the garage and check something and there I was 5 feet away and buns up on a thong. haha.....he just went "Hoooowwwssss it going?" I said "Great. Just getting some sun." He said nothing else, hurried to do whatever he was doing and hurried out of there. He was 100% more embarrassed than I was!

If I were your neighbor, I'd have joined you!!! LOL.

I love in place with a pool in the center of townhomes and wear thongs constantly. I have neighbors that Can see directly into our place and I wear tiny thongs and strings and even work out during this pandemic in full view of them. It’s awesome. No one minds. I think everyone loves seeing thongs. Or most people anyway these days. They’re accepted.

Ive been working on my deck and in my yard all summer wearing a G or thong. In full view of many neighbors. Next door neighbors are mid 20s and flat out told me they dont mind. We've had conversations over the 4 ft chain link fence. No worries at all. Lovin it!

Think our neighbours are/would be embarrassed - the husband was wanting to talk to me a few weeks ago and couldn't quite bring himself to say it. Guess they had both seen me either naked or in a Hom swim string (T-back) - I am fairly sure she did when I was doing some yard work and she passed by the other side of the hedge. My OH gets a bit freaked with what neighbours will think, so getting properly caught would ultimately be a bonus as there then becomes nothing much to be bothered about. It will go around the neigbourhood (most stuff does..) and become yesterdays news.

Neighbors today. I was mowing my grass today on my riding lawnmower in just an Ikinsky thong, when one of my neighbors stopped to talk. He has been riding by every day as I sit on my front porch in my thong or g-string doing work on my computer slowing down and waving. I did not know who he was until yesterday. I took a walk in a pair of very short rip-stop shorts by Body Aware and a tee shirt and saw him and went over to say hi. So today when he stopped I told him to come up to porch for a beer so we could get to know each other. He came back an hour later and we talked for 45 minutes. He even put his wife on the phone to meet me. He plans on returning tomorrow when he gets off work to relax and wind down. A few minutes after he stopped me to talk another neighbor slowed down and waved as I was on my mower. I thought all my neighbors had seen me. He must be new. He slowed down later and honked and waved as he went by. Most afternoons there are around 8 kids under the age of 9 who ride their bikes and play right in front of my home. Most of them live next door or across the street. I know most of them and have met their parents who know I wear thongs and g-strings on my porch. Yesterday two of them came up to me, one for candy and the other for water. I met their mother one day and she told me I could give them candy. I am glad the kids are all comfortable seeing me. None even pay attention to the fact I am in a thong. I still get somewhat nervous when they come up to me if their parents aren't with them and make sure never to be alone with them. Then there are the teenagers that walk by two or three times a day. All of them say hello. Three of them moved in last summer and would see me. The guys would play a game of ringing my doorbell when I was inside and then hiding in my bushes, then running off laughing when I came out on porch in a thong. Over the summer I began to say hello as they walked by, now all three stop to say hello to me amd I know their names. As I was sweeping the grass off my walkway today, a guy in college who walks his dog past my house every day, stopped and talked. I am still in disbelief that I have such cool neighbors who don't care how little I am wearing in the suburbs of conservative Atlanta.

Now that summer is nearing an end I'm planning to get as much thonging as I can in while it's still warm so I have a whole bunch of yardwork planned for this week and it'll be 80ish so I'll be in a thong the whole time. Might mow the back yard in a thong too, in view of four, maybe five houses. Mowing the front would be a bit too much of a show considering the street I live on. But I'm planning for a good two or three days of nonstop outdoor thonging.

I had been doing work in the yard this summer like weeding, mowing the lawn and Gardening in the back yard wearing a Skinz Sunseeker a semi-sheer Bamboo print. A couple of my neighbors have two story homes and can easily see in to the back yard. One of them he and I had spoken a few times when I was wearing just shorts and a T-shirt at the time. A week ago I was doing my morning watering he I heard my neighbor call my name as his head popped over the fence had some extras from his garden I was wearing the Sunseeker I am sure he knew what I was wearing he and his wife must have seen me from there upstairs bedroom window. So I went over to the fence took the garden items and thanked him and finished my watering. I went back into my house where my wife was making some breakfast I told her look what the neighbors gave us she just rolled her eyes. Later I picked some things from my garden and a bottle of wine then placed it in a bag and put it on a nail on our fence for these neighbors ( I had done this many times). I placed a note inside saying if I offended either of them just to let me know. A couple days later my neighbor asked where I got the wine because his wife loved it and not to worry I did not offend them in fact his wife really liked my tan...

The word conservative can take on so many meanings. For the most part, my wife and I are politically "conservative" although our conservative friends think we're liberal. However, we're both quite comfortable in nude social situations, or in minimal swimwear at the beach when we can't be nude. Being comfortable in my own skin, I work as a figure drawing model. For a while I worked at a "conservative" college and during the interview I was told I had to wear a thong because the students would be embarrassed by nudity. Females had to wear a thong bathing suit with a top to cover their breasts. I chose a g-string which in hind-sight was probably too brief. A few weeks into class all the models got an email saying we all had to wear a full-back suits because some of the students were still uncomfortable with seeing partial butts. FFS it's a figure drawing class! Like SlimSuit said, conservative does not necessarily mean narrow-minded

Mowed the lawn wearing sneakers and a thong for the first time ever. I was nervous at first because ALL of my neighbors were home but just decided to go for it. It was fun, and kind of a thrill hehe. I made a short video of it too, but yeah, that was kind of a thong bucket-list item for me, so now I want to do it again! haha

Thongzo, congrats, its addictive :)

ha ha - mowing the lawn in thong and sneakers - I think it is a good look and great fun on a sunny day (UK..), my OH disagrees. I draw the line at the ride on mower though, so I will use the push one just to stay comfortably dressed.

Got new neighbors in July, and this year have not been doing much back yard thonging. So I had time today and decided to get some sun. Any time in the past I would always take shorts out with me, but today I just went out. After about an hour I got thirsty so walked up went into the house to get a drink. When I came back out Linda was coming out of her garage and was coming over to get my drill. I was busted,was not sure what she would think,but her response really shocked me. Wow you have a great body,l was like thanks. As she was looking me up and down she asked for my drill. It was in the house so I turned around to go get it,and she was like wow a thong to, this is my lucky day. When I gave her the drill and said I was going to put shorts on but figured you scene everything. She was like I will be right back. 30 minuets later she came back over. She pulled over a chair and sat down, then she said I can not believe you wear a thong,I would of never guessed that.But it looks dam good on you. We talked for awhile and answered a lot of questions. But this really really shocked me when she started to get up to leave she reached down and touch my buldge and said have a good day,took two steps and said that is all you, I just had to know.

thong1066, You can't wish for a better response, that's awesome!

An even better response would have been if she had returned wearing a thong.

That would be true if she was built like Tyra Banks, but she is not. We talked about that and she said the way I look is going to inspire her to lose some weight. When I was unloading my bike yesterday she told me I look better with out all the cloths. She is looking at me a lot differently now.

Even bigger girls can rock things, many better than skinny girls!

Saturday Morning. Wearing a classic Aquatics V backed thong. Out on street and front yard. A lady that regularly walks came over and introduced herself, saying "I see you out a lot, let me introduce myself, my name is ..." Said good morning to the neighbor across the street and their dogs, we talked about dog harnesses. Said good morning to my neighbor and dog from two doors down, and we talked about the weather. Said good morning to the Rabbi's family as they walked to services. Talked with another neighbor from a few doors away who has lived here 30 years, but now moving on. Radiologist from down the street, exercising his dog by bicycle stopped to say his bike was working better after I tuned it up, and to later walk down and get some Avocados from his tree. Another neighbor who was running, and accompanied by kid on a bicycle exchanged peasantries. Got nods and waves from the workers arriving to work on the new house two doors down. Hot-glued a yard chair and filled the bird feeders, so now it is time for breakfast. Don't be scared of people. Just wear a thong like it was the most natural thing in the world. Act normally. Be friendly, and eventually everyone will just accept that thongs is what you wear. Yes, you might be known as thong-man, but it's not the worst moniker to have. I am comfortable with it, for my friends and neighbors don't use it in a derogatory way.

I have lived in the same house for about 30 years. I knew it was a knock-down when I bought it. The only value is in the land. I live in the most perfect place in Fort Lauderdale, Nurmi Isles neighborhood on the North Side of Las Olas Blvd. A mile from the beach and a mile from the shops and first class restaurants of Las Olas Blvd. 5 min by car or bike. My end of the street is quieter than near the bridge and Las Olas, and gets less traffic. I have lucked into the perfect place to live, from a location point of view, even if my old house is crap. At night there is not a sound. We have such low crime that the police don't even assign a car to cover this part of town. Because our islands are higher than the ones on the South side of Las Olas, and don't flood on really high tides or rains, our street is becoming rather popular. My street has lots big enough to build a good sized house, but not so huge you need five million just for the lot. We have deep canals out back that are over 120 feet wide and deep enough for my sailboat that draws 7 feet plus. I seem to have lucked into the exact prefect place to live in this thong friendly town. It seems others have decided the same thing. Houses are being snapped up as soon as they hit the market. Two houses very near me, one across the street and one two doors down changed hands this year. Both of the new owners, younger couples, are living in the houses for now. However all the rest around me are being knocked down and rebuilt. Diagonally across the street there is an ultra modern two story that was just recently finished. Six houses south of that my friends old house was knocked down and they will put up a similar modern two story, right now it is just a lot and they are starting on foundations. Two houses north on my side of the street sold too, was knocked down and they are almost finished with the new house. Then just this last month there has been furious activity by buyers. Just this last month 3 houses, all within a two house radius of mine sold, every one for the asking price. All three will be knocked downs. Average lot cost 1.5 million. With covid I have been out in a thong, in my front yard and in the street more than usual. Previously I would be off on a bike to the beach or something. I don't know if my thonging is attracting buyers, but at least two of the new owners did stop and chat with me before putting in an offer. I guess some people just want to live in a friendly tolerant neighborhood. Two days ago I was talking with a pretty young real estate agent. She was trying to get me to list my house with her firm. We talked about some of the good and bad things on the street, and while we were chatting three different neighbors came by. One to pickup a computer, one to just say high, and one to return something and invite me to dinner. She remarked that the neighborhood seemed very friendly. I have been mulling over selling, because my parents are getting very old, and I can't do homecare via trans Atlantic commute. They live on the island of Palma in the Mediterranean, right by the marina. The business has gone south, so I have nothing really keeping me here, except my friends, so I may just sell up and get a boat and live in the Med while I care for my parents. My mother, over 90, has had two falls and one broken neck, and my father is now a danger on the road, and has totaled a couple of cars. Over dinner, Tom, from a few doors down said that if I sell I should sell to another thonger. I thought about that. I guess another thonger would find it useful to live or retire to a neighborhood like mine, where the locals have no problem with a man in a thong. But before you all start dreaming, I should point out there is nothing on my street, not even a knock-down, going for less than 1.5 million, and that is just for the dirt. However interest rates are low, and demand for living in our part of town is heating up, so if seriously interested send me a PM.

Mid afternoon I went out for a paddle board. I launch of the dock behind my house, so easy peasy. I don't keep inflatable boards fully inflated, so they don't over pressure if they get warm. I pump paddle board to operating pressure, spray myself with suntan location, put on hat and tan through g-string and I am off.

Paddled round my island. At one house I noticed an unattended  fishing pole on a dock, that had a fish trying to take it away. So stopped to call over the bushes to get them to come out from the pool and reel in the fish. As I went round I said hi to other neighbors who were out in their yards, including head of the local hoa who was laying out with her husband by their pool. Then headed out to go up the middle river.

Got lots of waves and cheers, especially from one of the small booze-cruse-barges that had a group of partying women on board. Met quite a few people canoeing, (they rent them near near) and some women who were out paddle boarding. Had a good talk with older lady in green kayak who was way up the middle river, about clearance height on low bridges during high tides, before fighting the wind coming home.   I had a conversation with a couple who were out by their pool and had a flag hoist in their back yard: It read "Hamilton", (I can read flags), and I said I was disappointed the hoist did not say free beer. When I got back to my own neck of the woods I said hi to some neighbors who were out washing down their boat, and some others playing with their kids in their back yard pool. Got back just as the sun was staring to disappear behind the clouds.

Nobody mentioned my thong, although I am sure many of the smiles, and pleasant greetings and cheers were because I was wearing a thong. A women in a hot pink thong one piece who was dancing on the booze-cruse-barge did yell "Lets see it all".  However my wearing a g-string was not mentioned in any of the conversations with neighbors, locals and boaters. There is an unwritten code of boating round here, that shore rules don't apply to what you wear, or don't wear when out boating. 

Thong or g-srtring is my default when I get up in the morning, and all day long. Includes on the street, on the water or going to the beach. The only time I think about putting on more is for going to the supermarket, clients offices, a meeting, or out to dinner. 

JM, you said:"Thong or g-srtring is my default when I get up in the morning, and all day long. Includes on the street, on the water or going to the beach. The only time I think about putting on more is for going to the supermarket, clients offices, a meeting, or out to dinner. " I am almost with you. This summer, I have rarely worn more than a thong. While you live close to Miami, probably the thong capital of the US, I live outside Atlanta in a much more conservative area. Some people say I am lucky to live where I do and have the neighbors I have. I have to agree with this somewhat, but a lot of it has to do with them slowly seeing me every day in a thong or g-string in my front yard, working near the street, and on my front porch. Now most of them talk or wave and see it as another choice of clothing. I will admit the first few times I was very nervous, but as I continued to wear my minimual swimwear or undies (same thing) both my neighbors and I became more relaxed. Now I don't even check to see if anyone is outside or walking by when I open my front door to go out. It has become normal for me to just have on a g-string when outside. I just wish I could just wear one to go grocery shopping, to the bank, to the mall etc. It would make life easier and simpler.

Copying the format of JM_Runs I will share that on Sunday, a typical day I got up put on a bright neon green thong. About 9:00 a.m I went out to do some clean up of my front yard. Several drove by and honked. At about 10:00 one lady stopped. She introduced herself and asked me about my auto awning I just had installed. She said she drives by all the time and admires my care free attitude in what I wear. A couple walking their dog pass by and say good morning A group of bicyclists drive by. One yells “good morning thongman” About noon put on some cheeky denim cut offs and go to Wal Mart Comments overheard at Wal Mart include nice shorts, look half of his butt is hanging out, are those your daughters shorts, and a couple of who wears short shorts Went to Burger King to grab some lunch. While inside a lady is taking my picture from behind and then says now those are some nice looking shorts on you. I admire you confidence. Went to Home Depot. While checking out a lady comes up and tells me where I live and says I would recognize those legs and booty anywhere. I liked your bright green speedo you had no this morning Went home put green thong back on and washed car in driveway. Lots of honks and slow drive bys. One lady stopped and asked if she could take a picture. She took a short video of me washing the car and said she was going to send it to her friend back East where it was cold. She told me she sees me all the time A neighbor walking by stopped to chat A guy stopped and asked why I wasn’t wearing white washing my white car. (I usually do match colors) Got a ladder and climbed up to clean out the rain gutters Put on some bright yellow very short denim cut offs (almost no inseam) and the wife and I went out to eat If you will just wear what ever minimal speedo or thong you want and act naturally, people get over the shock and begin to view it as routine. My friends and neighbors seem to be okay with it and I hear very few derogatory comments and plenty of complimentary ones. For me, if I am not in a thong or mini shorts I feel overdressed. As the weather cools off here in AZ that will change. My posts are usually done in the enjoying the Arizona Sun heading but I thought this one fit better here while Enjoying the Arizona Sun

I live in a close knit neighborhood where the houses are closer together. There are pluses and minuses for them being so close but the biggest minus is it is tanning in my thong without being on display to the neighbors.

I used to do the short shorts thing and pull my shorts as far up as possible to create somewhat of a bikini tan line look. That was ok but didn't work well for the back side. Several years ago we bought deck furniture and a gas fire pit. The way the furniture is positioned, I am blocked from one side but the other is still visible. So now what I do is stack the cushion backs on the fire pit and ottoman to block the view from both sides. It isn't ideal, but it does work. I was able to tan often this past summer and my tan lines were looking good but sadly now have faded some but are still visible.

Where I live, in MD, I can walk around in public in a "baggie". I have washed my car right next to the street in a g-string. It has been 10 years since anyone called the police. Now I often nude! https://vimeo.com/487899306

Saturday is one of our garbage can pickup days. I heard the automated garbage truck going down the other side of the street and so rushed out my can for when it came back on my side, which only takes a few minutes. So after wheeling out the can I waited for the truck so I could wheel the empty can back in. Along came one of our newer neighbors, an orthodox Rabbi who walks to the Synagogue on Saturdays. He stopped to talk about the recent house sales and the old lady who recently died. The look of surprise in the face of the garbage truck driver, when he came back to find a Rabbi passing the time of day with a man in a g-string, was priceless.

JM, Your story about talking to an orthodox rabbi while in a g-string reminds me of the time I was on the busy Tel Aviv beach in a g-string. A Jewish orthodox young woman started to walk onto the beach with her 4 young children. She was holding one in her arms and had a toddler holding her other hand. The toddler got loose and ran onto the beach barefoot. The sand was extremely hot and the child began screaming. The mother called for help, but I was the only person who went to her rescue. There were at least twenty people near us. I ran over and picked the child up. The mother thanked me over and over. We chatted for a few minutes while she put on shoes on her son. She was very grateful and didn't seem to care that I was standing before her in just a tiny g-string, which by the way was legal then. Don't judge a book by its cover I guess is a good way of looking at it.

I came home after a night away and as I pulled into the drive, noticed my neighbor's daughter hanging out on the porch with her mom and some the rest of the family. She was wearing white see-thru leggings about calf length and what appeared to be a regular bra which showed a lot of clevage. Under her bottom, a black thong was quite noticable, as was the obvious bare skin of her buns showing through. She was out obviously not bothered a bit by the people on the street who passed, and her mom called out "hi" when I got out of my car, the rest of the people in the family did likewise. Her mom ask me if I had seen the branch that had fallen from a crumbly old tree in the backyard, and I said "No". The daughter was alternately adjusting the waist band on her leggings and her bra that obviously was designed to show a lot of clevage. The mom ask said she would show me the branches, but before I could say I didn't need any help the daughter volunteerd to take me back and show me. I wasn't going to say no. The mom told her to stay at least 6 feet away because of the virus, but I soon realized that this was the perfect distance to look at what she was showing. After showing me the tree limbs (some up to about 12 inches in diameter) the daughter and I went back to the porch and she started her fiddling with her bra and leggings again. Her actions were drawing my attention but the rest of the family seemed to not care a bit what she was doing. After a couple of minutes of talking about the wind that had broght down the limb, she mom looked over at the daughter and said "Well I'm not going to ask him for you. He should know, after all he spends a lot of time in the summer in just a thong or one of those little things that just covers his package." I had ask 13 years before when they had first moved in and I was thonging in the back yard, if my swimwear bothered them and they said it was fine with them at that time. Now 18, the daughter and rest of the kids had seen me, my friends, and Chris, a young man who helped me sometimes all hanging out in thongs. "I heard that in Ohio, women are not required to wear tops," the girl said. "Is that true?" I responded that as far as I knew, women could go topless unless a local regulation or a business management said it was not okay. I added that some of my female freinds had visited and didn't bother with a top and they never got into trouble. She thought for a very short moment and slipped her bra off, right there on the porch. The family members who were sitting there acted totally indifferent to what she had done, but one of her brother's friends who was with them just about fell over. "I usually wear a thong at the beach or when sunning," she added as she peeled her leggings off. "The only thing different is that I'm not going to wear a top today." "Okay," the mom said. "I didn't think there was any problems with you going topless since we have seen them at the beach." For the rest of the day, the daughter spent her time in just her thong. She looked very cute and several of her male freinds and brother's freinds came over and checked her out. Surprisingly, one of her male freinds said he would start wearing a thong like she wanted him too if she went topless to the beach. Where would we be without compromises and give and take?

Ohiothonger, Is this the first time you'd seen the daughter topless, or in a thong, or in minimal clothing or swimwear? What about the mom or other family members? It seems rather odd that after living next door for 13 years, with you thonging, she'd go overnight from conservative/covered to topless & thonging on the front porch in front of family and friends.

This sort of experimentation with dress is quite normal for a young teen girls. I have previously run residential summer sailing programs for teens, and had similar incidents with teen girls who are daughters of friends, and in one rather notable case, with my girlfriend's daughter. I do not mean all girls do this. Far from it. Many at that age are very shy about their budding bodies. For example one tween who came kayaking last weekend had a mid-length mermaid skirt over her spanks, and then a bandana tied around her middle too, to cover up her belly button. She discarded them later when more comfortable, but wearing them showed a hesitation about wearing less. I think that was not because she was coming to kayak with me, but because her elder brother was bringing a friend. However I have had busty 14 to 15 year-olds with no bra wearing skin tight almost transparent t-shirts deliberately teasing over family breakfast, or teens trying out topless for the first time. The one thing in common is they tend to experiment in somewhat secure settings. For example with family or men who are non-threatening, and who are not their age. For some it can be amusing and liberating for them to find that adult men notice them. Teens develop emotionally at VERY different rates and like to try on different personalities to see which skins feel comfortable. This is VERY true for some teenage girls, who often are a different person in school, at home, or out at a party, to the extent that they even have a change of costume in their bag. Like Superman they disappear into the restroom to come out a different version of themselves. In the reverse of the way that many of you would not wear thongs around family or work collages, they will not try out being provocative in front of boys from school or when out alone without a safety net. However they will try out being more provocative when they feel they are reasonably safe, i.e. without any real risky consequences. Around home, family or trusted adults, or with a group of similar aged girls at the beach. A front porch is a good example, because they can simply stand up and go inside if things get too uncomfortable. On vacation is another opportunity, but just like many of you they will feel uncertain when they first arrive at a novel destination, and will take being more adventurous more gradually. However having the safety net of other girlfriends of the same age around them will allow them to be less cautious on a prolonged vacation / summer camp. Don't mistake teen experimentation with provocative clothing or visual teasing with any intention to go further. That they are trying it out on you means they consider you to be way too old and therefore safe to tease. They just get a kick out of being recognized as a sexual women instead of a child, in the same way a child may wear their mothers lipstick. Best advice I can give is not to talk to the girl about it AT ALL. Not at all unless they deliberately raise the subject, and then just say they look good and you don't have a problem with what they are wearing, why should you? and promptly change the subject. Just smile when you see her. Don't be shocked, act like it is perfectly normal, and keep your eyes up. Look them in the eyes. They notice every side glance, no matter how fleeting. Remember while the show today is while you are there, and often directed at you, it is just an experimentation. Just trial runs until they are more confident with the same display with people of their own age group.

Can I just echo JM Runs - a young girl (teen) showing a lot of skin, making eye contact with you and smiling isn't inviting you to anything - no matter what your brain (or any other part of your body) is telling you. It is all part of a girl becoming a woman and finding her place in the world. If you think otherwise, then you might want to watch Rudy Giuliani in a recent film: Borat: Subsequent Moviefilm tells you all that you need to know...

Been away for a few weeks. This is not the first time I have seen the girl in a thong, but it was the first time she wore one so openly. This is also the first time I had seen her topfree, but she has seen some of my female freinds and a few ladies from the neighborhood topfree around my yar. I think what hit me most might be what JM calls something like being experimental. Her parents, both mom and dad as well as her (and many others in the neighborhood) know that I usually thong around the house and yard. The also have seen some of my aquantences and especially Chris, a young man who used to like right across the street wearing just thongs. So thongs wearing a thong was nothing new to them. She had worn them before in her backyard when getting sun but was never so bold as to wear one on the front area. What surprised me was probably five things: 1.The weather was nice enough to permit thonging, probably the best day since December. 2. The girls initial outfit -- very extreme and sexy but then I have not been many places where younger women have been over the last year or so. 3. The mom and family not being even slightly phased by what she had on before or after she removed most of her clothing. Also other neighbors who drove by not seeming to care but a few younger men/boys. 4. The mom letting her daughter choose what to wear, and suggesting questions being addressed to be because she knew I was into thonging and had seen me and others thonging. Her daughter was now 18 so maybe she decided to simply let her do as she wanted. 5. Her seeming to be totally at ease with letting others see her first in skimpy and see-thru clothing and later in just her thong. She also seemed to be even more at ease topfree and in her thong with me than she had been before. Her mom and dad are not into minimal swimwear themselves. Her brother wears board shorts a bit shorter than most his age. Her sister splits her time between slightly cheeky and normal swimwear bottoms, but never goes topfree. So basically the rest of her family is a pretty average family right or wrong. I believe she might have simply been trying a new look, enjoying getting out after a year of being cooped up, and was fortunate enough to not have a family that was non-kjudgemental. I don't think she was doing this to shock others in the neighborhood or her family, and these other people were kind enough to not make a big deal about her choices. I believe with few if any complaints, she might adopt the look more and more, and hoperully will influence both her female and male friends to try minimal swimwear as well. I don't know if any of this would have happened if she had not been able to see me year in and year out wearing a thong or less.

Personally I wouldn't stretch it that far with the neighbors seeing me like that. The beach is definitely a different situation, but the neighborhood....I'll stick to the backyard for that.

We just bought  100 YEAR OLD HOUSE,  less than 2 mile from the city limits of Pittsburgh.  With the closeness of the homes we are throwing up a fence for naked or thong sunbathing to eliminate any hassle or drama from the new neighbors. Fences, do make good neighbors!
